Alongside Kerry Harker and Claire Irving, Leo Carrie, Hannah Clapham-Clark and Sarah Campbell were Directors of the East Leeds Project CIC from 2023 to 2024.
Leo Carrie
Leo is an East Leeds resident with a desire to support his local community and art initiatives. He is also a small business owner, offering a bespoke picture framing service, as well as digital prints. His business grew out of a hobby and general love of art. He has collaborated with local artists on exhibitions and craft stalls. Leo prides himself on being a warm and friendly Yorkshireman and a Leeds United fan through and through.
Hannah Clapham-Clark
Hannah is a Producer from Manchester, currently working at LEEDS2023 on their year of culture. Before then, Hannah worked at Manchester International Festival for seven years in various roles, most recently as an Associate Producer where she worked on new, large-scale commissions across a variety of different art forms. She’s worked on everything from comedy and visual arts to music and dance, with a particular focus on work that is socially engaged and has a positive impact on working class people and communities.
Sarah Campbell
Sarah currently works at the Joseph Rowntree Foundation as Head of Participation and Advocacy. She previously worked in organisations in Scotland, Geneva, Brussels and London creating bridges between the world of policy and the communities affected by them. Collaboration is at the heart of all that Sarah does: building relationships and networks to create coalitions of interest to achieve positive change centring communities affected by injustice alongside academics, representatives of local and national government, businesses and the third sector.
